This is a little game I while learning the basics of pico-8.
It is inspired by Rock Hopper for the Amstrad CPC computer which was one of the first games I played when around 5 years old.

It's quite basic but hopefully someone will get a few minutes fun from it :)

This is a demo using tline to perform 3d environment/material mapping in pico8.
Both the object and the texture are stored in sprite memory.

Your eggs have been strewn willy-nilly about the barnyard!
Get those eggs back into your nest, and ROOST for heaven's sake.

The Final Update!
- Now has the missing intro
- Hit detection is a bit better.
Lexicon’s spaceship runs on slime, but the slime has run off! Get the slime back into the tank so you can get going again, and nevermind that all those creatures you caught have gotten loose. What’s the worst that could happen?
Z or C to fight, X to run. The digi-bugs are only interested in the slime, who will follow you if you’re close enough and she isn’t busy eating or complaining, and her voice is so distracting, that you can’t fight while she’s talking.
Your slimy companion will consume any nearby defeated digi-bugs whenever she’s hurt or hungry. If you can get her safely across the ship to her tube, you win!

My first pico-8 game and my entry for Ludum Dare 46. Catch packages while keeping a voice call going!
It's pretty short and the text could've used more work, but I enjoyed making it and learning the ins & outs of the dev environment.
Enjoy!

SPRITE FONT PRINTING!
This cart -- all it does -- is provide a sprite font and routines to print to the screen.
All the routines print either a colorized font, or a colorized font on a color background (if provided). If the first color is black, it prints in black, assuming the background to be transparent (say, if you were printing on a white background).
The three print functions do the following:
- SPRINT. Prints on 8x8 boundaries
- SPRINTC. Prints centered in X, but on a Y at pixel resolution.
- SPRINTXY. Prints at an X,Y at pixel resolution
The two SPRITE FONTS match the Pico-8 font, including the glyphs. (It doesn't contain Kana characters).

This has been solved. you may still look at the non-working code and working code.
So for my Merge Chickens game, I have a limit of 64 chickens because there are only 64 save spaces, but when I try to make it so I can save more chickens all I get is:
here is my code:
--savebuk() and loadbuk() function savebuk() local d=0 for x=0,15 do--go thrugh all of for y=0,15 do--the map tiles local i=0 local s=0 if mget(x,y)>63 then i=mget(x,y) --if this tile is a chicken --set i to the sprite number end if x+1<16 then if mget(x+1,y)>63 then s=mget(x+1,y)*1000 --if the tile next to the --tile at x is not off the --map and if the tile is a --chicken set s to the tile --times 1000 end else if mget(0,y)>63 then s=mget(0,y)*1000 [ [size=16][color=#ffaabb] [ Continue Reading.. ] [/color][/size] ](/bbs/?pid=75072#p) |

I made this game for the olc:BeatTheBoredom game jam during the COVID-19 Quarentine
I hope you like this fun, silly game!
This game has 63 chickens.
Thank you @kyubr for doing the math for me on how many of the first chicken you need to get the last one.
Please do not comment what the chickens look like (It's a surprise).
If you beat the game please comment below BUT DO NOT SHOW A SCREENSHOT OR SAY WHAT THE CHICKENS LOOK LIKE.
If you would like to show a screenshot, please make it hidden, like this.

Not really a bug, but I accidentally discovered that '!' now gets replaced with 'self' at runtime, except when followed by '=':
> !ish = 42 > ?selfish 42 |
This is a bit confusing because in other languages, ! is an operator, whereas here it behaves almost like any other letter.

Introduction
Hey! This game was made for Ludum Dare 46 by LiquidFunk and Lukas018 using the fantasy console PICO-8!
Capture & Trace
Capture & Trace takes place inside a fictional city in which a disease is spreading. The problem? It is virtually impossible to detect it. That's where you come in. Your job? Capture & Trace citizens. How you ask? It's easy!
Instructions
The game takes place in cycles where the simulation runs. After each cycle, it is yours, the player's, turn. You have two tools to utilize each turn which both cost action points to use. Capturing costs 5 action points. Tracing costs 10 action points.

You wake up in a magical grove at the center of the forest. You have been here many times before, but somehow it always looks different. Most plants seem to grow and die more quickly than normal as you move about, but the trees around the grove all seem old and well-worn. They seem to exude a sense of safety and peace, but you sense that they may be more fragile than they seem. You set out to explore, certain that the forest still hides many wonders...
Controls
- ​Move: Arros
- Open Spells Menu: X
- Use Action: C
- Options: ENTER
Changelog
2020.04.26 - V4:
A small bug fix / balance tweak for the jam version as we noticed the more interesting late game content wasn’t spawning and squirrels had about a 25% chance to be useless for a good long while.
